## Mathematical Normalization Formulas
### 1. Staff Selection Commission (SSC) Multi-Shift Formula
Based on official SSC Notice No. 1-1/2018-P&P-I:
- Normalized Score = ((M_t^g - M_q^g) / (M_ti - M_iq)) * (M_ij - M_iq) + M_q^g
- M_t^g: Average marks of top 0.1% candidates across all shifts
- M_q^g: Sum of mean and standard deviation of all candidates across all shifts
- M_ti: Average marks of top 0.1% candidates in the i-th shift
- M_iq: Sum of mean and standard deviation of candidates in the i-th shift
- M_ij: Actual raw marks of candidate j in shift i

### 2. Institute of Banking Personnel Selection (IBPS) Equi-Percentile Equating
- Scores across multi-session shifts are normalized using percentile rank mapping on a uniform cumulative distribution function (CDF).

### 3. Railway Recruitment Boards (RRB) Percentile-Based Normalization
- Percentile Score = (R / N) * 100
- R: Number of candidates appearing in the session with raw marks equal to or less than candidate
- N: Total number of candidates in that specific shift session

### 4. State Bank of India (SBI) Junior Associates (Clerk) State-Wise Merit & Equating
- Enforced 20-minute sectional timing across English Language (30 Qs), Numerical Ability (35 Qs), and Reasoning Ability (35 Qs).
- Zero minimum sectional qualifying cutoff in Prelims; aggregate state merit determines Mains admission.
- Shift variance normalized via Multi-Shift Percentile Equating Formula calibrated with historical circle scores.
